Discrimination based on nationality occurs when people (applicants or employees) are treated unfairly because of their place of origin. Nationality discrimination also can entail treating people adversely since they are married to (or linked with) a person of a definite national origin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Discrimination can happen when the victim & the person who imposed the discrimination are the similar national origin. Let\u2019s talk about what to do if you are a victim of<\/span> nationality discrimination in California.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What is nationality discrimination?<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is against the regulation to harass a worker because of his national origin. There are diverse forms of nationality discrimination. It extends to unfavorable employment decisions throughout the process of hiring, training, & decisions about compensation, salary, fringe benefits, discipline, termination, or time off. A single unpleasant employment decision could generate an offensive work environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

California labor law prohibits nationality discrimination when it creates an aggressive work environment. Simple teasing or other one-off events are not unlawful; if not, they occur regularly. You can encounter discrimination by<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• Supervisor or Manager<\/span><\/li>\n
• Co-worker<\/span><\/li>\n
• Somebody who is not an employee, such as a contractor, customer, or vendor<\/span><\/li>\n
• Staff in another department<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  A worker’s national origin must never be the cause of harassment at work. Whether an employee is from Spain, Senegal, US or belongs to a definite ethnic group, he has the right to get equal treatment & opportunity as any other.<\/span><\/p>\n

  An employment action founded on an individual\u2019s nationality and ethnicity is considered nationality discrimination. This form of biased treatment violates federal & California labor laws. Nationality discrimination can comprise harassment at the workplace based on the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • Family names related to a specific national group<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Membership of an ethnic group<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Wedded to or in a relationship with someone from an origin group<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u00a0Participation or Attendance in churches is usually related to an origin group<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    File your complaint against national discrimination\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Deciding how to file a nationality discrimination complaint is complex. In California, a claim could be filed with the state agency, DFEH, or EEOC, the federal administrative organization. Both organizations have a \u201cwork-sharing contract\u201d, which allows them to assist in processing these claims.<\/span><\/p>\n

    File a nationality discrimination case depending on the extent of your office. If your company has between 5 & 14 staff, you are asked to file a nationality discrimination case with the DFEH. It is because the EEOC applies to companies with fifteen or more workers. If your workplace has more than fifteen employees, you should file a nationality discrimination case with either of the above-stated agencies. A professional lawyer or adviser would be able to provide you with proper support and help you file a complaint against national discrimination.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Final words\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n

    It is a good idea to contact a California employment law firm take support nationality discrimination under federal & California labor laws. They take the huge majority of discrimination cases on an emergency basis. For some of the law firms, there are not any upfront costs or lawyer fees. They are only paid when they successfully obtain financial recovery from the employer, either settling their case or prevailing in court.<\/span><\/p>\n
